Effect of inoculum/substrate ratio on methane yield and orthophosphate release from anaerobic digestion of Microcystis spp.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A batch anaerobic test was conducted to evaluate the effects of inoculum/substrate ratios (ISRs) on the methane yield and orthophosphate release from the anaerobic digestion of Microcystis spp. The results demonstrated an obvious influence on methane yield and orthophosphate release by ISR. The maximum methane yield decreased from 140.48 to 94.42 mL/gVS when the ISR decreased from 2.0 to 0.5. The highest maximum methane yield calculated from Ørskov equation was 153.66 mL/gVS at ISR value of 1.0. The values of pH, ammonia and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) corroborated the appropriate stability of this anaerobic process.

Effects of sludge inoculum and organic feedstock on active microbial communities and methane yield during anaerobic digestion
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a widespread microbial technology used to treat organic waste and recover energy in the form of methane ("biogas"). While most AD systems have been designed to treat a single input, mixtures of digester sludge and solid organic waste are emerging as a means to improve efficiency and methane yield. We examined laboratory anaerobic cultures of AD sludge from two source...
متن کاملThe Potential for Biogas Production from Grass
Grass is generally considered as one of the major agricultural products and covers over 90% of Irish agricultural land. While useful as an animal feedstock it can also be used for energy production. Here batch mesophilic anaerobic digestion of grass silage was studied. The methane concentration in the biogas clearly showed that grass silage has a high affinity to produce a high quality methane ...

Biochemical methane potential of four species of Ulva and Gracilaria genus was assessed in batch assays at mesophilic temperature. The results indicate a higher specific methane production (per volatile solids) for one of the Ulva sp. compared with other macroalgae and for tests running with 2.5% of total solids (196±9 L CH(4) kg(-1)VS). Considering that macroalgae can potentially be a post tre...

Introduction: The need for food produced from animal husbandry has made it a growing industry which result in increment of livestock waste. On the basis of environmental and economic considerations, these materials require treatment and management. Anaerobic digestion and creation of biogas are the most effective methods of waste management. Several parameters affect the anaerobic digestion of ...
متن کاملEffect of domestication on microorganism diversity and anaerobic digestion of food waste.
To accomplish the rapid start-up and stable operation of biogas digesters, an efficient inoculum is required. To obtain such an inoculum for food waste anaerobic digestion, we domesticated dairy manure anaerobic digestion residue by adding food waste every day. After 36 days, the pH and biogas yield stabilized signifying the completion of domestication. During domestication, the microbial commu...
